Hey Jaiswal,

Although it may not be considered a tool for use in the design (per
se) of a database, I would highly recommend that SchemaSpy
(http://schemaspy.sourceforge.net/) be added to the list.

I have added TCM to the list...

I use it quite a lot when designing things. It makes no attempt to do
automagic mapping of diagrams onto physical implementation, but when
trying to deal with reasonably deep modelling issues (e.g. - trying to
figure out what are the entities and what are the relationships between
them), the full detail of schemas of tables seem like a distraction.
